Brace yourself.....

 There has been progress made in the sewing rooms!

A bookcase and file cabinet have been moved back under the north windows. They are both still empty because we noticed the joints need gluing and clamping and we haven't got around to it yet. Possibly tomorrow...  

The sewing table has been cleared oof extraneous junk. Said junk has been either put where it belongs or as close as we can get it.  a Friend was scheduled to come help me clear the ironing surface on Monday, but the Mr has developed something suspiciously akin to norovirus, so we are canceling all visitors until at least Friday.  I will what I can on my own. When I have worn myself out with that I have several premie baby gowns to stitch.  I also have a new file cabinet which is slated to hold my Smocking Arts Newsletters and all of my SAGA stitches programs. These are currently (mostly) in three different areas, which makes it irritatingly slow to find what I need. I think there will be room in the lower drawer for all of my half-done convention projects, too.

Time for sleep, so I can get up in the morning and do things!

2024 in Review

 

  This will be quick!

I only started a couple of projects, although I purchased three kits from Mary Corbet. I've lost one already, but it will turn up,

We had new windows installed in the entire house This required getting all furniture moved away from the windows so the crew had room to unpack and install the new ones. My sewing rooms still have All The Things scootched to the sides of the room. I am slowly getting them put back together, decluttering, organizing, and rearranging things as I go. It's a slow process, but I can already see improvement. 

In August, the Mr and I traveled to Illinois for my high school reunion. 50th. I don't know how I can be out of high school for 50 years when I'm only 40. Right?   We also hunted down my brother, with whom I had lost contact.  He's in the early stages of Altzheimers and tends to lose a phone a week. Since he keeps all his contacts in his phones, he forgets how to get hold of me.  Time for a letter, methinks.

Sept, October and November were months.  In December, we celebrated 20 years of marriage. 

Roll on, 2025
